When, in 1041, the Bohemians invaded the lands of the Poles, who were Henry's vassals, Henry brought them to submission, compelling the duke of Bohemia to recognize his suzerainty. Between 1043 and 1045 Henry campaigned successfully to restore the deposed Hungarian king to his throne and for a short time afterward controlled Hungary. Henry was greatly concerned with church reform and went to Rome in 1046 to settle the conflict caused by three rival claimants to the papacy. Setting aside the three antipopes, he appointeda German bishop, who, as Pope Clement II, crowned Henry Holy Roman emperor. During the rest of his reign Henry appointed three succeeding popes, all Germans. Returning to Germany, he contended with domestic rebellions. Henry supported the church's attempts to check clerical abuses; he also strengthened the power of the papacy, which proved disadvantageous for his son, Henry IV.

Succeeded his father, Emperor Henry III, at the age of six, but during most of his minority, his mother ruled in his name. Invaded Rome in 1084 and was driven out by Robert Guiscard. Henry returned to Germany and there participated in a long series of civil wars, in which his sons eventually turned against him. In 1105 he was taken prisoner by his son Henry, later Emperor Henry V, and forced to abdicate. Escaping in the next year, Henry IV solicited aid from various sources, including England, Denmark, and France. He died in Belgium while gathering an army. [Funk & Wagnalls] MINOR, NEWLIN LINES - 27th ggrandfather !As Henry IV aged it became increasingly obvious to his supporters that they would need to reach some accommodation with his successor, and his unhappy reign ended with the defection of the dukes of Austria and Bohemia, both previously loyal, captured by his son Henry, the confiscation of the royal insignia, and an unconsecrated grave at Liege where he died still excommunicate in 1106. [Oxford History of Medieval Europe, p. 145] !Son of Henry III, Emperor of Germany, and Agnes of Poitou; m.1. abt 1066, Bertha of Maurienne; father of Princess Agnes. [Ped. of Charlemagne, Vol. I, p. 264] !During the long minority of Emperor Henry IV, Hildebrand (formerly an obscure monk of Tuscany, but a genius) had been diligently employed in pushing the papal encroachments. The pope and the emperor soon found themselves in collision, each claiming the supremacy. The quarrel arose upon the right of investiture (whether bishops and dukes were to consider themselves as vassals of the pope or the emperor). Hostile messages were sent to and fro, until the pope had the arrogance to summon the emperor to appear before him in Rome. The indignant sovereign assembled a council of prelates and other vassals at Worms, and declared Gregory no longer to be worthy to be recognized as Pope Gregory, in retaliation, excommunicated Henry, released his subjects from the oath of allegiance, ,and prohibited them, under pain of eternal damnation from supporting the emperor, or in any way ministering to his wants. The people were so overawed by the terrors of this decree, that they at once abandoned their sovereign; and he was left utterly ruined and helpless. Under the dictation of the pope the princes met at Opeenheim, to choose another emperor. Henry IV in dismay and despair, crossed the Alps, in the dead of winter, to throw himself at the feet of the offended pontiff and implore forgiveness. Gregory was then at the castle of Canossa, near Reggio, in the domain of Matilda, the opulent and powerful countess of Tuscany, who was, with all the enthusiasm of her glowing soul, devoted to the papacy. For 3 days, in mid-winter, the abject monarch stood a suppliant at the portal of the castle before he could be admitted. Barefooted, bareheaded, and clothed in a woolen shirt, he was compelled to wait, that the world might witness his humiliation. At length the haughty pontiff condescended to grant absolution to the penitent. The reconciliation which ensued was far from cordial, and Henry, mortified and exasperated, returned to his realms, watching for an opportunity more successfully to resume the strife. Soon the ecclesiastical censure was renewed, and the emperor was again deposed. In the meantime Henry IV had strengthened his cause, and the pope's bull had lost somewhat of its terror. Both parties prepared for war. [Nations of the World, Vol. XXV, pp. 432-5] !Henry and Pope Gregory went to war. Matilda, the celebrated countess of Tuscany, was allied with the Pope. The Neapolitans, led by the holy father, were defeated, but Henry was eventually driven out of Italy and dethroned by his own son, Henry V. He died a broken hearted old man, in the extreme of destitution and misery. [NOW - Italy, Vol. XXV, p. 434] Duke of Bavaria; Holy Roman Emperor; son of Henry III and Agnes of Poitou; m.1. Countess Bertha of Savoy; father of Princess Agnes. [Ped. of Charlemagne, Vol. III, p. 265] Henry IV came to the throne as a boy of 6, and in his minority the kingdom, consolidated by his father's strong and wise rule, threatened again to go to pieces. The gentle Empress Agnes had been appointed regent; but the boy king was presently carried off by Anno, ambitious archbishop of Cologne; and in the hands of three rival archbishops he spent his youth, treated harshly and indulgently by turns, to grow up no such good king as his father, while the great vassals learned once more to make light of the crown. [Leaders & Landmarks, Vol. II, p. 38] The young king was flighty and irresolute, as well as self-willed; living an immoral life, he had more than once used edifying language of repentance, perhaps not altogether feigned, and he had submitted to a former Pope's injunction against divorcing a wife who turned out his best friend. His mother, Agnes, also brought her good influence to bear on him. When Hildebrand was made Pope the king had entered upon putting down the Saxon rebellion, which kept him on his good behavior to Rome. But it was the old story of the devil's monkhood after he fell sick. As soon as Henry felt himself more firmly set on his throne by the quelling of the Saxons, he grew indifferent to the Pope's demands; and soon insolently defied him by appointing to bishoprics in Germany and Lombardy, while he deposed and imprisoned Saxon bishops on his own authority. The Pope summoned this usurper of his rights to answer for himself at Rome. The king replied by calling the council of German bishops at Worms, which pronounced Gregory's deposition, and was backed by the bishops of Lombardy, incensed against the rebuker of their shortcomings, whom in turn they sought to blackenby absurd charges of sorcery and other strange sins. Henry was excommunicated 1076. [Leaders & Landmarks, Vol. II, p. 41] His second wife turned out to be his most virulent accuser. First one and then another of his sons rebelled against him, licensed by the Pope to take the place of an excommunicated monarch; and when he died at Liege, the Church denied his body burial in consecrated ground. Thus Hildebrand's curse followed him to his grave. [L&L, Vol. II, p. 45] Elected king 1053; brought up by Archbishop Anno of Cologne 1065; emperor 1084; b.
